    Help Pricing an 87 GT

    I know about the pics. That's what he sent me via text. I think those folks in the mid-west still don't understand high speed internet, go ahead and send the full res. I didn't realize t-tops had that structural issue.

    Help Pricing an 87 GT

    A friend of mine might go look at this 87 GT. It's a guy he knows from the army, so it's not a total stranger purchase. I'm in CT and my friend's back in WI so I can't go see the car. But I love Fox Body mustangs, I own a 93 Cobra, so he figured I'm the guy to check with. The seller is not...

    Yet Another Comparison Thread - Appoligies in Advance!

    Hi folks, its been well over a year since I posted...anyway...I'm looking at adding a 2nd Mustang to my garage (my 1st is a 1993 Cobra). I've counted out several already, 2 in person and 2 with some online digging. I haven't gotten to the point of a test drive yet. I know these are...

    Should I buy this bugger?

    http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/4644397111.html I went and saw it in person. A few scratches on the front, but that seems pretty normal. The guys is a total Mustang guy; loves Foxes, owned a '03 Cobra and he's selling this in order to fund his '70 fastback. The '70 is literally in the...

    Why is it that sh!t cars think they can beat a 1993 Cobra?

    Again I have a non contender; Dodge Caliber SRT. I looked up the specs, not too bad. 14.4 1/4 mile. Similar to the stock 1993 Cobra. He probably thought it was a stock 5.0; so in that case he would have won assuming similar driving ability. But it's a Cobra and I have 3.55 gears plus...

    2 Rare Foxes...same neighborhood in Denver

    I was getting gas with my '93 Cobra one day and this kid (I'm 34 guessing he was 19) comes up and starts talking to me about my car. He mentions he's rebuilding a '86 SVO. Thought that sounded pretty cool, but a lot of people have big dreams and Denver is a big city. 1 year later I'm driving...

    People love to think Fox Bodies aren't as fast as they used to be

    I have a 1993 Cobra, stock except for exhaust and 3.55s. A guy on a cell phone cuts me off on a 2 lane on ramp. He swerved between the 2 cars in the right lane to get in front of me in the left. Nearly caused an accident. We're waiting for the arrow at this point. Some mid 2000's Mercedes...

    Elk vs Honda Civic

    Driving just west of Denver on I-70 eastbound in my friend's Dodge. We see 4 elk on the hwy. He slams the brakes, other do too. 3 elk make it across, a grey Civic takes the legs out from under the other. A Subaru rear ends the Civic. And the elk goes flying behind them. We pull over to...

    How Loud are Super Chargers

    Just wondering what a basic model, like the 5psi Vortech, makes for noise. Is the high pitch whine really noticeable? Also, can that low boost model be just bolted onto a 1993 Cobra with no other changes? Wasn't sure about modding my Cobra but am thinking about it so I figured I weigh the...

    Never Really Believed the Underated HP Until Now

    We all know the 93 Cobra is rated at 235...and the deal with Ford changing the ratings in 93, etc. I figured if they could have rated it higher then why not right? I was coming home from work and a 2006 Pontiac GTO 6.0 pulled up beside me rev'd and took off. He slowed back do to 70 and I...

    Dirty MAF causing power loss?

    I was working on the interior of my car and had left the hood up after replacing the air filter. I finished with the interior, dropped the hood and went for a ride, maybe 25 miles. I realized when I got back that I had forgot to put the air box cover back on so the air was coming from inside...

    3.55 gear change - speedo gear difference?

    I searched and found too many general responses. On other forums I saw someone mention that the 1993 cobra needs a 23 tooth instead of a 20 tooth speedometer gear that the GT/LX use. Is this the case? I thought the only difference in the tranny was the phosphate gears. No I'm not debating...
